Armstrong Theater, it was announced today by Arleigh E. “Gene” Dotson and Al Han, executive producers of JAG Productions.

In 110 Stories, a firefighter leads a journey through the morning and events of September 11th and into the recovery through a blend of the words and reflections of 30 characters, including an iron worker, a policeman, a homeless couple, a photojournalist, a K9 handler, a doctor, a body worker, a chaplain and a volunteer, among others.

“This storied play has been presented at numerous high-profile venues at New York University and The Skirball Center for the Performing Arts in 2011, The Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles in 2010 and had a very successful performance last year at the Nate Holden Performing Arts Center in Los Angeles,” said Dotson.
